More than 15 tugboats are expected to participate in the 27th Great North River Tugboat Race and Competition, which features the race, nose-to-nose pushing contests, and a line-throwing competition by tugboat crew members.

Be part of the action on the Circle Line Spectator Boat. When you return to the pier at 12:30 pm, head over to Pier 84 for more exciting events. You can test your mettle in the amateur line-toss competition or participate in other kid-friendly activities.

Board from Pier 83, West 43rd Street and Hudson River Park. Boarding begins at 10:15am. Spectators will be onboard from 10:30am to 12:30pm. There's also free public viewing on shore.
